AEW: All Out full card preview and predictions

Riho vs Hikaru Shida

We have two Joshi women from Japan that were teammates at Double Or Nothing finding themselves as foes at All Out. There is a report that the winner of this bout will oppose the winner of the Casino Battle Royale to determine the new AEW Women’s champion.

Hikaru Shida is an 11 year veteran who has collected some accolades along the way. She held titles in multiple Japanese promotions and owns a few victories over NXT women’s sensation Io Shirai.

Meanwhile, Riho is just 22 years of age and debuted in the Ice Ribbon promotion at the tender age of 9! She is the first Ice Ribbon Triple Crown champion and has been a title holder of the DDT Nihonkai Six-Man Tag Team Championship with current AEW superstar Kenny Omega and Mr. #6. Riho has accomplished so much over 13 years and still has a long career ahead of her.

You could go either direction with these two incredibly talented women. Familiarity is likely to play a role in determining the winner of this bout. Seeing that an opportunity to headline the AEW women’s division is at stake, both competitors will be looking to pull out all of the stops. Riho owns a singles win at Fyter Fest while Shida has not competed in AEW as an individual.

Riho will follow up her first singles victory with yet another winning performance in this potential show stealer at All Out

Winner: Riho

Joey Janela vs. Jimmy Havoc vs. Darby Allin

We have three of the most dangerous and fearless men in the World of professional wrestling squaring off in a slobberknocker. These gentlemen were on a team involved in a six man tag match in which they ended up losing the contest at Fight For The Fallen. Their reputations and egos were likely damaged, which led all 3 to brawl backstage after their match. This explosive affair was made on the spot and we the fans are going to see some pyrotechnics as a result of their brawling.

Joey Janela has main-evented an AEW event already. In an unsanctioned All Elite Wrestling match, Janela fell victim to Jon Moxley in a brutal hardcore match. Barbed wire, tables and being dropped on his bare feet onto a bed of thumb tacks were the high or low-lights of Janela’s night.

Jimmy Havoc made a name for himself in England and CZW. He is familiar with violent matches and death defying stunts. Something that is considered underground in the World of pro wrestling. Havoc is not the only man in this match capable of pulling off the insane.

Darby Allin stamped his name on the map by battling Cody to a 20 minute draw at Fyter Fest. His missed ‘Coffin Drop’ and unique style in ring were very memorable in this bout and it shouldn’t be forgotten that he was able to hold his own against one of the best performers in AEW. Even if it was pushed to the way side by the post match chair shot heard ’round the World by Shawn Spears to Cody’s skull.

You could go in any direction here. The three men in the ring have often proclaimed that they are more than willing to put their bodies on the line for a win and entertaining the fans. Janela going as far to say he’d be willing to die in the ring and has no regard for his well being. The fans are winning in my opinion. This is going to be an intense, pure six brawl that is going to end with a bit of blood and guts shown in the process. While Havoc hasn’t had a stand alone moment in AEW yet, I think the company is eventually going to strap a rocket on Darby Allin’s back. He possesses the charisma and character development that brings marketable appeal. All at the tender young age of 22.

Winner: Darby Allin
